7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

$1.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the cost of the pencil

Let x + .80 = the cost of the pen

Let 4(x + .80) = the cost of the binder

x + x + .80 + 4(x + .80) = 11.80

2x + .80 + 4x + 3.20 = 11.80

6x + 4.00 = 11.80

6x = 7.80

x = $1.30

x + .80 = $2.10

4(x + .80) = $8.40
